Did you notice if the rear seats a noticeable amount lower?

I checked and no, it still sits about the same as far as I can tell. The topper isn't really that heavy anyway.

This will be my third cap on a RBV and all have been cab height. My dad went with a mid rise on his last Ranger and really insists that cab height is the way to go.

Why?

I would say the camper only weighs around 150-200 lbs. I was able to transfer it from one truck to another with a short skinny guy with no problem

Why?

Partly snow removal in the winter, partly fitting it in places. I think he missed being able to have a roof rack too. So if those don’t matter to you then a taller cap would be fine.

Those are also my top reasons why to skip them, right behind that I think they look bad.

Mine will be delivered on Monday and installed on Tuesday.

I finally ordered a Leer 180. Not thrilled with Leer's customer service, or lack thereof, really. They ignored my attempts to contact them with questions, and I only learned what I needed from having a local dealer contact them for me. They have zero pictures of the 180 on any 5th gen Ranger, in any configuration, even though they've apparently sold several. Just...really bad business sense. But at least the 180 is significantly cheaper than the comparable MX from A.R.E. I also got a free carpeted headliner. Woot.

Weird...the Leer catalog I saw at the dealer had a few photos of Leer caps (and Century caps) on 5th generation Rangers.

Here's my setup

Was that pretty easy to install, and does it cover the gap in the front of the bed pretty well? I assume that's the Softopper brand.
Do the bed rails just sit on top of the overhead rack supports?
